Wipe-Clean Blinds

Built for steam and splashes

Fabrics and natural wood can mark, sag or warp in rooms with lots of moisture. Choosing the right materials from the start means your blinds stay looking fresh with very little effort, and we'll point out the suitable ones when you look through the samples.

Bathrooms

Faux wood venetians and faux wood shutters give a warm, natural look and cope well with humidity, so they're often what we'd suggest. Cellular blinds and moisture-resistant roller fabrics are good alternatives.

Kitchens

Above a sink or hob, compact blinds that wipe clean are best, as they're easy to keep on top of. Aluminium venetians and coated roller blinds are popular choices.

Keeping them clean

A quick wipe with a damp cloth is usually all they need. Our care and maintenance guide explains how to look after each type.

Choosing wipe-clean blinds for each room

Not every room needs the same thing. In a bathroom, steam is the main issue, so we'd look for materials that won't warp or mark when the air is damp. In a kitchen, it's usually grease and splashes, so a smooth surface that wipes clean easily matters more. In a utility room, cloakroom or children's room, it's often about standing up to busy everyday use.

• Faux wood venetians: a warm, wood-look option that copes with humidity.
• Aluminium venetians: slim and easy to wipe down, useful in compact kitchens.
• Coated roller fabrics: plain or patterned fabrics with a finish that resists marks, including blackout options.
• Perfect Fit® blinds: they sit in a frame on the window, which keeps the blind tidy and away from sills and taps.

Wipe-clean blinds for rentals and family homes

Wipe-clean blinds are also a sensible choice for landlords and busy family homes, because they're easier to keep looking good between deep cleans. If you're furnishing a rental property, our blinds for landlords page explains what we'd usually suggest. For schools, care homes and other shared spaces, we can also look at commercial and healthcare fabrics made for those settings.

Fitting in kitchens and bathrooms

Kitchen and bathroom windows often have tiles, taps and deep sills to work around. We measure and fit every blind ourselves, so we'll check where the blind can sit, how it will clear the tap, and whether the controls are easy to reach.
